On April 28, it became known that the prototypes of the Granta XJO (or Grant-2) project had been brought to the factory test site by AVTOVAZ testers. The fact itself suggests that the main engineering work has been completed and the plant is entering the final stages of various checks. At the moment, the Grant is known to be shown in two body styles – a sedan and a station wagon.
The efficiency is amazing. Therefore, we can conclude: the model “trolley” is completely new, but borrowed. This was to be expected, because the “barn” of the current family is none other than the old Kalina. It is already morally obsolete and it is definitely time to send it to the museum. That is, rumors that the factory workers use the French CMF-B, as part of an agreement with Renault, can be believed. Yes, and designing two body types on the same platform is much easier and cheaper.
But it will not be a blind copy of the same Dacia. Vazovtsy already has experience in finalizing various European technical solutions. Let’s not forget LADA XRAY Cross. The hatch had a cool design and good driving characteristics.
Therefore, our bodies are made by ourselves, as evidenced by various spy photos. The designers of “Grants” did not abandon the corporate X-style, but made adjustments to it: original stamps appeared in the front wings and doors. If we compare the “Grant” with the third generation Dacia Logan sedan, then the “European” looks simpler. But the narrow head optics are similar. In view of the “Frenchman”, we can assume that Granta−2 will grow in size. The length can be up to 4350 mm.
In terms of technique, the suspension scheme will be as follows: McPherson in the front, elastic beam in the rear. Power steering is electric, but drum brakes are still on the rear axle. You can also make a steering column with the “trolley”, which is adjustable in height and reach. Well, under the hood we see a 1.6-liter 16-valve engine with a capacity of 106 hp. Of. Domestic engineers have gained rich experience in integrating their own power units into Renault cars.
In the end, we note that in the winter of last year, the head of the auto giant Maxim Sokolov said that the model would receive modern options. Which? Here too we look at the possibilities of the platform. It allows you to install up to six airbags, seat belts with pretensioners (front and rear) and integrate an automatic braking system.
And the Dacia has climate control, an electric parking brake, a rear view camera and parking sensors all around. Of course, we don’t get all this wealth at once. And the factory is unlikely to have time to fix the shortage of electronic components. But, let’s say, two airbags, “climate”, a multimedia complex from “Yandex” and a parking assistant are very real to see.
